A qualitative analysis of savings and internal lending communities in Haiti – do they make a difference
In 2013, the United States Agency for International Development (USAID)/Haiti commissioned an external qualitative assessment of a four-year Savings and Internal Lending Community (SILC) activity funded by USAID that had recently ended.

Using a purposive sam…

We recruited couples from a clinic in inner-city Johannesburg to take part in the st…

In this study, both men and women perceived infidelity as ubiquitous in their social context and were therefore unable t…
